If it came up my younger ones probably would my older ones would come ask me about it quietly. But it hasn’t ever come up.

When my youngest was 3 , he said to someone (an adult) :
“If you’re a g-y why aren’t you bad?”

It is. But it's coming from a 3 year old.
My almost 3 year old will ask me what I'm making on the toilet from the other side of the door....
The judgement and under amother isn't very nice.
Op, I don't think my kids would say it. But kids say dumb stuff all the time. So I wouldn't bee too shocked.
My kid once loudly asked me "is the driver jewish?"
We were on a village bus in kiryas joel, the driver was clearly dressed in chassidish clothing. He had curled peyos. A regular satmar guy.
She was 5!!
I told he to look at his clothing and make an educated guess.
Then she asked me how I know he's really jewish.
Kid's got a point....
But anyway. Kids are kids are kids. You teach them my preaching, by example and by correcting them. And then they still do stuff.
Oh well. So do I.

It's horrible, and it's not the 3 year old who looks bad.

We hid that reality about some of their cousins from them until they were in their late teens specifically so they would have the maturity and sensitivity to not have an oops moment and make our nieces and nephews feel awful.

A child of mine asked a secular Jew at 4 or 5 years old whether he was Jewish because he didn’t wear a kippa? The man was horrified and insulted which I think was pathetic. Children ask stupid questions, besides the man had been working in a frum workplace and was proudly NOT wearing a kippa so what was my son supposed to think? He was figuring out the world.
A more disturbing part was I had a neighbor who told her new classmate that she was a convert, because their whole family had recently converted and it was a known fact. So the neighbor was yapping about it in public like she wasn’t even really Jewish. Little did she know, her own mom was also a convert but she didn’t talk about it and of course other adults who knew didn’t either

Never assume anything. I assure you, he didn’t learn that g0yim are bad from me. At my sons bar mitzvah:
My son is the kid without the blurred face . And the person he said it to laughed . But I still felt embarrassed.

Don't forget to invite us to your next bar mitzva...

My BFF and also my cousin adopted their children.
I didn't tell my kids because I was afraid they might tell the kids they were adopted.
My BFF asked me to tell my kids not to tell her kids about the adoption and was very impressed when I said my kids don't know.
